Various Artists – Music Inspired by the Film Roma

Here is the compilation album for
Music Inspired by the Film Roma. After Alfonso Cuarón finished Roma, he sought out some of his favorite artists to compose songs inspired by the film. Beck, Billie Eilish, Patti Smith, DJ Shadow, Laura Marling, EL-P, T-Bone Burnett, and a diverse group of international artists took up his offer, creating a companion piece to the 10-time Oscar nominee. Entitled Music Inspired by the Film Roma, you can now stream the entire thing.

Beck recently reimagined Colourbox’s “Tarantula” for Music Inspired by the Film Roma, a 15-track accompaniment to Alfonso Cuarón’s Oscar-nominated cinematic masterpiece. On Monday night, he performed the song live for the first time on the Late Late Show with James Corden, assisted by no less than 20 special guests.

The 15-track album paints another intriguing layer to the acclaimed film, which tells the story of a young maid’s life in Mexico City in the early ‘70s. Beck offers “Tarantula” featuring Feist, a soulful cover of the 1982 track from British electronica group Colourbox, while Billie Eilish contributes the dark electro cut “When I Was Older”. In addition to American artists, the record includes songs from Rangel (of Mexican alt-rock group Café Tacvba), French-Cuban twins Ibeyi, British trip-hop act UNKLE, and Cuarón’s 15 year-old daughter Bu Cuarón.
